The Last Bass Outpost

Now I'm intrigued, I had half expected the first reply would be, "It's a ____. Duh!"

Not sure, but man, that was painful to watch.

Haha... I like to check out the instruments in these kinds of clips.  It seems like the cheesier the performance, the more likely you are to see something interesting or obscure.

Hi, pardon the intrusion (I'm the rare guitarist who doesn't even dabble in bass), but I'm wondering if anyone can identify the bass being used in the opening musical number here:   

 
The relevant bit starts at ~1:57, if you're not up for 70's kid show wackiness.

The shape is very Les Paul-ish, but doesn't seem quite right for a Les Paul or Triumph and the knobs are definitely wrong.  I haven't been able to find anything else from the era (Wikipedia says '74-'75) that matches.

Thanks!
